BSL:Defunct

This page is a collection of seemingly defunct BSL variables and functions, which have no known/noticeable effect in the publicly available versions of Oni (be it on Mac or Windows). They may have been functional in the beta version; however, the Big Blue Box Beta data includes only resource files from the beta stage, not the executable.

Also included (for now) are functions for which the effect is unclear in some way.

Defunct or unclear variables

All the built-in BSL variables are listed here, in alphabetical order.

Row background color

White: available on all versions

Blue: only exists in Mac Intel build

Default value

# !!!: reset by engine at level load

!?: set by engine at game/level load, depends on persist.dat

Works

"OK?": confirmation/refinement required

"??": apparently defunct (no effect)
